cultural day

Hi. On Saturday we all went to the cultural festival which was so much fun because I was in Kapa Haka which meant we were performing first. There was so many people at the cultural festival that it was hard to move around and there was so many stalls but there was still huge lines for them. I could smell icecream and baked goods. What cultural group were you in?

writing week 5

Hi this is my wring week 5 that I have been working on for a while. this week we did the circle of flames here's the picture and writing.
Bye, Matilda
A deafening sound echoed through the hallways it said “you can’t get me now Winston you will never be able to get the winning Hitler” people started to scream. I staggered  into a room I looked around flames were engulfing it and lonely light was shining onto the dangerous flames. Pushing down a chair onto the flames I ran across it then when there was a moments silence I heard a ticking sound it was coming from the left side of the room. struggling over under a burning table was a stick of dynamite I yelled in shock then a man opened the door he steeped inside his black shoes clacked along the bare floor boards and he said in a greedy voice “well well well what do we have here” it was Hitler a smug look on his face suggested that he was the one that had set fire to the head quarters then without warning he grabbed a rope and threw it around me he knotted so tight it seemed to dig into my skin then he bundled me over his shoulder and set off out of the collapsing door.

my writing about a turtle

we were writing a story about a turtle breaking out of its shell this is my favorite line As I pushed and attacked the thin white walls that surrounded me when my head popped out and I saw the line of sand curving around a raging blue sea . here are some pictures.

writing

As the withered and curious rock sat  unmoving on the soft grainy sand the raging indigo sea continued getting closer as the tide drew nearer. The rock was so circular it was like the planets in our solar system. As the got closer I realized it was so big I could it looked like I could fit 100 suns in it.

As I walked calmly along the beach in Winter an astonishing sight met my eye’s a boulder that looked like it was fit for a giant was standing in front of me I was so surprised I just stood there fit for a giant then in my excitement which I would regret I grabbed a rock and tried to smash it open then I found a lever embedded in the rock without thinking I pulled on it and the rock opened to my surprise dozens of people came running out and I looked again and there was a man dressed in a sheet I thought he was wearing a toga then I reasoned with myself that was impossible the over 1,000 years ago so I yelled at the top of my lungs STOP and guess what they kept on running then I shouted again and this time they stopped at last then I asked what are you doing here… they didn’t seem to understand then a made how looked a bit like queen Elizabeth the first said well what do expect after we have been in a rock for 1,000 years you would be running to everybody needs to stretch your legs then she gave a death stare at the guy wearing a sheet he shuffled his feet nervously and moved away a little  then she said anyway I am starving staying in a rock for 1,000 years would make you hungry to I nodded not knowing what to say then I saw my mum coming up the beach and then then I looked around and everyone had disappeared all that was left was a slightly crumpled silk hankichef. This is my hatching writing here is the picture

the great drain game

Hi today we did something very cool some people came and we learned about what happens when water and waste goes down our drain's here are three paragraphs that show what happened in the 3 activities

Activity 1 V.R and wetland talk
our first activity was Virtual reality where we learned about the affects of plastic in the sea's and oceans. We looked at a beach that was covered in plastic and and amazing ocean fulled with coral.

Next we did the wetland talk where we looked at animals that lived in wetlands and we did a really cool thing where there was a miniature wetland and drained dirty and polluted water and changed it into much cleaner water because the grass and other plants drained out the sediment which was fascinating.

Here are some facts we learned the wetlands stop floods and other thing's, they did some water samples in Scotland and found over half of them were polluted and the wet lands make polluted water into cleaner water.

Activity 2 location of the drains

Our next activity was we got a map of Owairaka and found all the drains we did it with lunisi and we were in a group of 8 we went all over the school and even into the car-park! Me and my friend found 25 drains but another group found 30. Some facts we learnt there are different types of drains there are round ones and rectangular ones and very long one and there are two different types of drains there are the ones that are connected to pipes and there are the ones that are for collecting storm water.

Activity 3 diorama of Auckland city showing where our water goes.
Our last activity was my favourite the was a diorama that showed where all of our water goes after we use it. At the top there was a drain, a toilet, taps and a rubbish bin we showed where we thought different objects which were detergent, nappies and rain water went and where we thought it was going.
Some facts I learnt was leaves shouldn't go into the drains and  you should never put nappies or wet wipes down the toilet and because in will get stuck and might blow up the pipe!

What was your favourite part?
Bye, Matilda.

Athletics day

Hi this is my athletics day post. If I could show how I liked it out of ten I would give it a 6 out of ten because it was really hot and tiring but it was good because the activity's were fun. What was your favourite activity? Sweat dribbled down our foreheads as we passed around the fan to try and get cool but it just made us hotter. Running as fast as possible the girls sprinted into the distance before slowing down and then stopped then ran again.
Bye, Matilda.
